Primer GF-021

Before applying a paint and varnish coating to the surface, it should be treated with a primer. Due to this, the varnish or paint layer will gain high strength and last a longer time.
Primers are classified into three types, depending on their intended use: for exterior use, for interior use, and universal. In turn, each type of primer can provide a surface coating or a deeper one.
Universal primers include the GF-021 primer, which is produced in accordance with GOST 25129-82. It is applied as a protective layer on various surfaces such as metal, wood, plaster and paint. Resistance to temperature fluctuations, durability, adhesion strength – all these properties are possessed by the primer GF-021. The material consumption will be minimal with a proper approach.

COMPOSITION FEATURES

The composition is a suspension that includes the following components:
  • minerals;
  • pigments;
  • the siccative;
  • stabilizing substances;
  • alkyd varnish.

FEATURES OF THE PRIMER

As for the filler, it is usually solid materials such as titanium dioxide. The amount of pigments and minerals in the primer is 54-80%. Despite the fact that the GF-021 primer has excellent technical characteristics, in some cases it has to be diluted. The following solvents are used for this purpose:
  • petroleum solvent;
  • xylene;
  • nefras;
  • RS-2 and others.
The primer is available in several colors – red-brown and gray. Each batch of the composition has a quality certificate, as well as certificates of conformity and hygiene. The mixture is supplied in a metal container, the capacity of which depends on the purpose of use – household or industrial.

APPLICATION OF THE PRIMER

GF-021 primer is an excellent anti-corrosion material that has an adhesive property to wood, metal and other materials. The composition is suitable for both indoor and outdoor work. The coating perfectly tolerates temperature and climatic fluctuations, is resistant to lubricants, mineral oils, fresh and salt water, and is resistant to various detergents and cleaning agents.

One of the important advantages of the primer is its compatibility with almost all paint and varnish materials and enamels, which allows it to be widely used in finishing works. The mixture can be used as a primer and as an independent coating. The primer can be treated with grinding materials after application.

USING A PRIMER

To apply the primer to the surface, you can use a brush, roller, spray gun, etc. If the GF-021 primer is applied incorrectly, its consumption will be much higher than expected. Therefore, it is necessary to achieve the correct consistency, as well as choose the optimal method of applying the primer.

The surface is treated in several layers. Each layer should dry well before applying the next one. Depending on the method of applying the primer, its consumption can be 60-160 g per square meter for one layer.

Do not smoke or use a fire while working with the primer. If interior decoration is performed, the room should be systematically ventilated until the surfaces are completely dry.
